Celebration Homes places its own founding in 2001 and its office at 7123 Crossroads Blvd in Brentwood, and names Randall B. Smith, Corey W. Craig and Lloyd Craig as the people behind it. What distinguishes it structurally from most of the builders on this list is scope: its own About page says it builds new homes and communities throughout Middle Tennessee and the surrounding counties, and nowhere else.
It runs two brands rather than one. Celebration Homes is the main line; Heritage Homes is the second, which its own site describes as its larger executive-style homes, primarily in Williamson County. If you are comparing two homes and only one of them says Heritage, that is a product-line difference and not a trim level, so ask which brand the plan belongs to.
On the day we read its communities page it listed seventeen communities across Fairview, Franklin, Lebanon, Murfreesboro, Nolensville, Smyrna, Spring Hill and Williamson County. The page publishes a starting-price band per community rather than one figure for the builder, which is why no price is quoted here — ask us for the live, plan-specific number. The company also names a Sure Sale Program for buyers who need to sell first, a Design Center, and a "Green" homes programme.
What buying from Celebration Homes is like
Selections run through the builder's own Design Center, and the purchase runs on the builder's own contract. Get the included-features list for your exact plan in writing and compare it against the options sheet before you sign. If you need to sell an existing home first, ask for the Sure Sale Program terms in writing too — a programme name is not a term sheet. Order your own pre-drywall and final-walkthrough inspections.
Which communities does Celebration Homes build in?
Every new-construction community on this site that names Celebration Homes, by county — 18 in total, 12 of them recorded as selling in our own data. Status moves faster than any page does, so call us at 615-265-1000 and we will confirm what is actually releasing homesites this week.
On 2026-09-23 we read Celebration Homes's own Middle Tennessee community list and compared it with every community above. 6 of them were not on it, and they aremarked below. We keep the page either way — that is our record of where this builder has built — but we will not present a community as something you can buy into today when the builder's own list has moved on from it. A community leaving a line-up is normally a phase closing out.

Can I bring my own agent to a Celebration Homes community?
The sales counselor you meet at a Celebration Homes model works for Celebration Homes. That is the role, and a good one knows those plans, those homesites and that build schedule inside out. What the role does not include is representing you on price, on which options are worth buying, on the lot premium, or on the terms of the builder's own contract. That is what a buyer's agent does, and in Tennessee you are generally free to bring your own to a builder community at little or no cost to you.
Timing is the part people get wrong. Most builders ask who your agent is on your very first visit, and sorting it out afterwards is an awkward conversation nobody needs. Call us at 615-265-1000 before you walk into the model and your representation is in place from the first appointment — which is also when it is worth the most, because that is when the plan, the homesite and the options are still open.
Two brands under one roof is exactly the kind of detail that is obvious to the people who work there and invisible to a buyer on a first visit. Call 615-265-1000 before you tour and we will tell you which brand and which plan you are actually looking at, what else is releasing nearby, and what the agreement says.
What Celebration Homes publishes about itself, and where we read it
Every line on this page about Celebration Homes came off Celebration Homes’ own website. Here is each one with the page it came from and the day we read it, so you can check it yourself — and so you can see when a figure is old enough to be worth re-checking. Builder pricing, availability and programs change without notice.

Celebration Homes is a locally owned, Brentwood-based semi-custom builder whose own About page dates the company and names its principals, and which builds throughout Middle Tennessee and the surrounding counties. It runs a second brand, Heritage Homes, for its larger executive-style homes.
Celebration is one of the few builders on this site whose own communities page prints a starting phrase — "from the …" — beside each community. Those phrases are carried verbatim below with the day we read them, and nothing is converted into a number we could not point at. Where the builder's page marks a community as closing out or coming soon, that is carried too, because status moves faster than price.

In a multi-builder community the band above is Celebration's own, not the community's cheapest home — those are different numbers and confusing them is the most common way a new-construction budget goes wrong. Several communities we track were not on the builder's own list when we read it; those rows say so. Its own list also carried communities we do not yet track.
not currently listed by the builder — Our records name this builder here, but the builder's own Middle Tennessee community list did not carry this community when we read it on 2026-09-23. That usually means a phase has closed out; it is not a judgement about the builder or the community, and we still document the community — call 615-265-1000 and we will confirm what is actually releasing before you drive out.
Every row above was checked against Celebration Homes's own Nashville page on 2026-09-23. A price appears only as the builder's own published wording on that date — never our estimate, never an MLS figure and never a closed sale. The Will Johnson Team is not affiliated with Celebration Homes.
What a buyer should know — and why to bring your own agent
Celebration Homes is a long-established local builder that works from a curated semi-custom plan library and builds every home to a "Green" energy standard as a baseline, per its own site. That's a useful starting point for comparison shopping.
Here's the part worth understanding before you walk into a model home: the salesperson at Celebration's community office represents Celebration Homes — that's their job, and it's a good one. It just means their focus is on selling this home, at today's price, on their contract. Having your own buyer's agent means someone is focused entirely on your side of the deal: comparing Celebration's plans and pricing against the other builders active in the same community, reading the contract and any incentive fine print before you sign, and getting a written, line-by-line list of what's actually included in the base price versus what's a paid upgrade. We do this at little or no cost to you as the buyer, because in most new-construction transactions the builder covers buyer-agent compensation the same way a seller would in a resale — and we're touring these exact communities constantly, so we know what's currently available before you drive out.

615-265-1000Frequently asked questions about Celebration Homes in Middle Tennessee
Does Celebration Homes build custom homes, or is it a production builder?▾
Celebration is a semi-custom builder: buyers select from a library of established floor plans and personalize finishes and options through the company's Design Center, rather than designing from scratch or buying an identical spec home, per celebrationhomes.com.
What's the price range for a Celebration Homes house in Middle Tennessee?▾
We don't publish a single range, because the builder doesn't — its own communities page prints a separate starting band for each community, and those bands sit far apart. The table above carries each one verbatim with the day we read it. For the community you're considering, we pull the live figure before you tour.
Should I use my own agent, or just work with the builder's on-site sales rep?▾
You're free to work with either, but the on-site rep is contracted to represent Celebration Homes' interests. Bringing your own buyer's agent — at little or no cost to you — gets you an advocate who compares Celebration against other builders in the same community, reviews the purchase contract, and confirms in writing what's standard versus upgraded before you commit.
We represent buyers in new construction at little or no cost to you, and because we tour these communities constantly we help you compare Celebration Homes against other builders, read the incentives, and navigate the build to closing. Builder programs, plans, and pricing change — confirm current terms on any specific home before you write an offer.
